Satyr (Free verse) by ecargo
Compelled by his hungers, febrile and fetid, he scratches and belches, his lusts unabated; feculent, filthy, goatish, a swine, vigorous, ebrious, lusty, divine! Impelled by appetites, wine, and crude song, there's chaste to be chased 'neath the myrtle 'til dawn, and when he succumbs to the drink, the old sod, the townspeople cheer and call him a god.

Up the ladder: The Embrowning
Down the ladder: Grouchy Smurf (in limerick)

"there's chaste to be chased 'neath the myrtle 'til dawn" -- http://www.poemranker.com/poem-details.jsp?id=144546 suggests you haven't been doing too much to discourage this kind of behaviour, ecargo :-p

This reminds me of something, and I can't for the life of me think what...
